Observations:

This inventory is very difficult to decipher in places due to poor handwriting and by ink offset stains from a previous page which overlay the writing. There is no date to this document but NLW have dated it by its position in the book, sandwiched between two sets of documents dated 1586. It is not possible to clearly decipher the Latin endorsement at the end of the inventory. It may be an additional, omitted, entry for the debtors as the sum of xd [10d] seems to be involved.
The inventory is reproduced below with modern spelling.
